This sounds a lot like this topic described here:
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-12/msg00690.html

My recollection is that rsync 2.5.6 didn't get the
cygwin patches for buffering applied, sigh.
Look here:
  http://pserver.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/#dirlist
for the code base and here:
 
http://pserver.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/patches/craigb-perf.diff?rev=1.1
for the buffering patches.

Since this file:
  http://pserver.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/fileio.c
still appears unpatched, this suggests that the
performance patches for cygwin still have not been
applied to the code base.

If you want to try out the version that I use with
the buffering patches, you can get it here:
  http://www.kleckner.net/rsync.tgz

I'll leave it there for a month or so.

Good luck - Jim
